He worked many years at Revere Copper and Brass Company in Rome, NY till 1985 when he relocated to Waco where he became a supervisor for Texas Copper Works, eventually retiring as an Air Service Maintenance Technician. Tony was known for his ability to “fix anything” and many friends will miss his help. His oldest son will miss the summer visits and the many, many movie adventures they shared.
